The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge showed off their sporty sides on Thursday (27 May) during the last day of their royal tour of Scotland.

Will and Kate picked up their tennis rackets to get stuck into a session with the Lawn Tennis Association's Youth programme, which aims to make the sport as accessible as possible to children around the UK.

The royals were all smiles as they joined a group of youngsters on the tennis courts at Craiglockhart Tennis Centre in Edinburgh, and things got competitive when they played against each other in a 'Team Duke' vs 'Team Duchess' mini match.

The duchess dressed down for the session, wearing a preppy cable knit cricket jumper from designer brand Ralph Lauren over simple black tailored trousers and a classic pair of white trainers, which look to be from Superga. Her dark hair remained down in wavy blow dry.

The royal couple had a busy day on Thursday, after spending the morning at Starbank Park in the Scottish capital. There, they heard more about the work of Fields in Trust, a charity of which the duke is royal patron, aiming to protect green spaces.

It's been an action packed tour for the royals since Prince William touched down in Scotland last Friday (21 May). He was joined by Kate on Monday (23 May) with the pair travelling to Orkney and visiting their old university at St Andrews over the last few days.
